Tutorial Extra Fields 5 Comments Recommended Comments Steve 3,919 Posted February 28, 2012 Share excellent write up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Leemul 0 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Hi captain, No comments on your how-to (just one word: perfect), but I would like to add that in case of an automatic transmission, an additional oil cooler is mandatory (for extra cooling of the transmission oil) according Lexus. This special note was also mentioned in the manual of the Thule towing bar I mounted on mine (and seems to be a fairly normal 'thing' for cars with auto trans, applicable for most makes and models actually, but not everyone seems to know this (including me)). For bringing some garbage to the end of town won't be a problem, but towing heavy loads in the mountains will eat up the standard cooler capacity for sure. After installing the second cooler (mounted in line and after the original one) I was amazed how much the oil is being cooled by the 2nd cooler. Just to avoid problems for the automatic fellas, hope it ads something here... Keep up the good work, Leon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
